Graham should have fought him, give him a real reason to flop.

Normally a ref will look for a fully extended arm to determine a push off. Graham DID NOT fully extend his arm. Yes there was a little contact, but there were 4 defenders in his area. For the refs to make that call and change the outcome of the game is outrageous. Ppl here bitch about Graham being soft but now they bitch that he touched a defender to make a great play on the ball. There is no median with some of you tards. Yes it is what it is at this point, but it doesn't make the call right.

WHAT. THE. frick. The guys I was watching with and I watched the replay about ten times, and we all agreed. He DID extend his arms. No doubt the defender flopped. He did. But it was a legit call all the way. Jimmy got a little over zealous.

Graham pushed the defender very clearly. It's really undeniable.

I'm honestly more disappointed we didn't stop them on 4th and long.

Yep. I have no fricking idea how someone could see otherwise. That said, it's really disappointing because I don't think Graham had to do it. And it was a great play.

bullshite. Slight contact with a major flop. No way you call that with 4 defenders there and the game on the line. No fricking way.

not sure what you call full extension, but that's pretty close. defender embellished a good bit, but it was a necessary call. Jimmy probably still makes the catch if he doesn't touch the defender

I don't think jimmy really makes catch if defender doesn't fall

Lol ok. Your definition of push is definitely different than mine then. If that was PI then there should have been about 12 of them called that game . Officiating should be consistent right?

What? You can't place the hand and extend the arm like that and not expect a call.

a major flop


I agree. Too bad that's not the issue.

Please 'splain what having four defenders there has to do with it. And the game on the line kind of calls for the correct call, imo.

Come on lol the defender didn't move an inch from his initial contact . The only movement was straight acting . .maybe you should watch little closer.

That there is going to be fricking contact between players it's fricking football you God Damn tard. Show me one hail Mary end zone pass into a group of player's where someone wasn't contacted.

And maybe your should familiarize yourself with the rule. Look, I hated the result as much as anyone, but it's pretty tough to argue that call.
